The re-newed provincial council met in Paris for the first time in early November 2025, after the election of the new Superior General Fr. Declan Marmion, who was up to now the Vicar Provincial in Europe and National Administrator of Ireland.
The Council is made of 4 Provincial Councillors:
- Fr Pascal Boidin – who is also the National Administrator of France and rector of Notre Dame de France in London, UK,
- Br Ivan Vodopevic- National Administrator of England and superior of the Hull community in England,
- Fr Marcello Pregno – superior of the Moncalieri community in Turin, Italy;
- Fr Edwin McCallion – currently parish priest of Coolock in Dublin, Ireland, who will be also the Vicar Provincial.
The Provincial Council meets montly in Paris together with Fr Kevin Duffy, who was re-elected for his second mandate of 3 years as the Provincial Superior of Europe, and joined by Fr James McElroy as Provincial Bursar (he is also the superior of the community in Paris).
Let us keep them in our prayers as they serve the Society in Mary in Europe through this ministry of leadership!
